LURA Restaurant & Garden — Restaurant in Fethiye

I was in the neighborhood waiting for a friend and decided to go in for coffee. I was immediately drawn by the unique atmosphere emanating from the place. The inside was huge and very well lit and decorated. It offered, not only a space to eat or drink something, but a convenient workplace as well, where people can enjoy a tranquil environment.

The outside also created a very different vibe from the usual entrances. A big statue complimented the middle column, inspiring an air of meditation and harmony. The outer enclosed area was an extension of the restaurant, thus offering more seating space. On sunny days, one could also choose to sit outside right by the street curb, where tables were set.

The inner seating area is very spacious, the tables decorated with simple details (I.e cute placemats, small plants), with a choice of chairs or comfortable benches strewn with colorful pillows, for those who want to stay longer. Along the windows sills, one can see rattan bags and plants, giving the place a rather rustic feel.

The bar area is humongous and very attractive, displaying coffee machines, small accessories, a freezer containing various cakes and sweets. On the side and along the wall, different wine bottles and other alcoholic drinks are organized in such a geometric fashion, very appealing to the eye.

A window right by the drinks‘ display opens to the kitchen where the server can pick-up the customers orders. I found it to be a genial idea!

I ordered a cappuccino, which catered to my taste buds. I could tell the coffee beans used are of great quality.

This time around, I only had my drink, but I will definitely return again to sample some of their food and/or sandwiches, which, from what I’ve seen around, looked fresh...

The interior is great. The staff is really friendly. BUT.

We came for breakfast, thought this place have menemen but it appeared to be more like European menu. So we ordered Sucuklu omelette, and toast with salmon and poached egg.

To our disappointment, the omelette was quite dry and as for the toast with poached egg - the egg was over cooked so the yolk was not even close to what it suppose to be in poached egg. :)) i want to believe that it’s one time mistake.

One good thing - if you like americano - it’s one of the best americano I’ve tried in...

Love this place! My wife and I were looking for a nice, cool (with A.C) place to relax and eat good healthy food.

Their menu has a lot of variety.

Food is made with love and chef is very friendly.

Staff and owner are very friendly too and make you feel at home.

I think they do yoga and pilates too so the vibe, decor and music is very chilled and you could stay here for hours.

There is a gym across the street so my wife and I go workout there and then come here to refuel with some healthy food in a chilled...
